      Just business…

      http://www.sdreefs.com/forums/showth...-gallon-lagoon

      This guy was selling everything for $100. Great deal in my opinion, but I only needed the light and DJ strips. So I messaged him asking can he split it up, and we agreed on $40 for the light plus electrical strips.

      Fast forward to today, he texts me saying someone offered me more for the light, would you bump up for offer for it?

      Hell nah. This ain’t an auction site, sheesh we just had one auction get in trouble. If you’re selling some and you agree on a price sell it for that damn price.

      I told him that’s a sh1tty thing to do, he replies “just business”

      Not really a **** move. Someone offered more and wanted the complete package. I'd sell it to them too. What is a **** move is posting their phone number publicly

      Money talks. It sucks but that’s how things go on here.

      Unless you had already paid or were on your way to pick it up you can't fault someone for going with the better offer. My $.02

      Don’t worry. The last 3 times I’ve tried buying something from this site has been people either bailing or replying 8 hours later saying “sorry it sold already”,,,, on items that were JUST posted😂 but took 8 hours to get back to me just to say it was already sold. Best advice is to just not do business with those with bad business ethics👌🏽

      In my book, if I post something for a certain price, and someone calls dibs, it’s their. Regardless of anyone else wanting to pay more. It’s better business ethics, but most importantly kindness.
